@darkw00d The thing is, none of the stuff HTML5 does is actually new. Flash could have been replaced years ago already just by using a combination of SVG and scripting (which is just as hackish, and I'm not suggesting it as an alternative to HTML5). HTML5 simply made a lot of noise and woke people up to the fact that there's actually other ways to make a browser do the things flash does without using flash. HTML5 does make a lot of it easier, but only by comparison to other markup languages. It's still going to lose against almost any programming language.
